He who must not be named has just been named by Schiff, in an open letter to republicans
"To my Republican colleagues: When the president attacked the independence of the Justice Department by intervening in a case in which he is implicated, you did not speak out. When he attacked the press as the enemy of the people, you again were silent. When he targeted the judiciary, labeling judges and decisions he didn’t like as illegitimate, we heard not a word. And now he comes for Congress, the first branch of government, seeking to strip it of its greatest power, that of the purse."
"You have deplored his fundamental inability to tell the truth. But ... you have chosen to keep your misgivings and your rising alarm, private. That must end. The time for silent disagreement is over. You must speak out."

Residents of another Manhattan building have voted to remove the Trump name.
For the second time in four months, the name “Trump Place" will come down from a New York building facade, after condo owners at 120 Riverside Blvd. voted to remove the name, following 5 other buildings doing the same.

just checking... nothing yet from trump on the white supremacists Coast Guard officer who was plotting to kill Democratic politicians and journalists?
Or nothing about election fraud in North Carolina - he was big on claiming there was lots of it... just he didn't want it to be GOP

But residents are permitted to change the name of their building if they want so you'll just have to get over it.
If you want to see a real waste of time and money... look at what someone is trying to build on the southern border.
Just as Muellers office are about to drop their sentencing memorandum on Manafort, the Manhattan DA's office is preparing state criminal charges against Paul Manafort in an effort to ensure he'll still face prison time even if Trump tries to pardons him for federal crimes

Robert Kraft, owner of the New England Patriots, has been charged in Palm Beach County with soliciting of a prostitute, according to Jupiter Police. The charges stem from an months long investigation into a massage parlor.
Kraft had his chauffeur drive him to the massage parlor. I guess that beats having your bodyguard arrange and escort women to your hotel room - that never happened...

ker Roger Stone'.I try and keep up with this thread as it's fascinating.
Question for those following closer than I... does this ring true?

Is it a well-timed indication that Pooty-poots has been repeating the campaign-funding-dressed-as-a-business-deal formula that we all suspect benefited Trump?
Of just some Italians MPs chancing their arm?

The left are trying harder than they have ever tried to smear Trump, and still, there's nothing, the local Police have found more evidence against Smollet in 2 weeks than Mueller has found on trump in 2 years.
It's about time they let him get on with the job he was elected to do

Huge story breaking in Italy. Putin agreed to a request from Lega Nord leader Matteo Salvini to covertly finance his Euro election campaign. The plan was to conceal the payment behind an apparently normal business deal. Sound familiar to trump?
Google translate needs for the Italian site

Edit: so with trump it was the Secret Moscow Tower deal
With Brexit, it was Russia’s secret gold deal with Arron Banks
It was. Russian bank loan to Marine Le Pen’s party for the French presidential race,
Now Italy...

After arrest of Coast Guard lieutenant, who allegedly amassed weapons and compiled list of Democratic lawmakers and journalists, Sarah Sanders says Pres. Trump hasn't "at any point" done anything "but condemn violence, against journalists or anyone else."
Did she forget about the time Trump applauded Montana Rep. Greg Gianforte for criminal violence against a journalist. He literally clapped.
Another trump named building in NY is taking the name off, second in two days
